Description: Kawasaki throws down a 600cc gauntlet with the new ZX-6R, and plans to be king of the 600cc performance hill. The hardware is all there--a compact, efficient inline-four motor pumps out an estimate 93 horsepower at the rear wheel, while Kawasaki's Ram Air Induction promises to keep the power flowing at high speed. And whether in the capable hands of Miguel DuHamel or Zippy the Squid, the nimble, completely adjustable chassis zips through corners and over bumps with aplomb. But, while chances are good Kawasaki can win on any given Sunday, they might have trouble selling on Monday: The ZX-6R, at $7899, is the most-expensive 600cc production motorcycle, ever.
